 Birdie Bread Recipes
I find Birdie Bread a staple in my home as it allows me to get
certain vitamins into the ingredients easily eg. Vitamin A which
parrots are in need of. I also find it a great staple to mix
with their fresh vegetables and fruit in the morning. All my
guys love it and seeing those food mash mixtures on their beaks is a
sign of their satisfaction!
Banana Cheese Muffins
By
Teresa Schnurr
Most parrots enjoy the taste of some hard cheeses.
However, you can only give them very little and not often.
This recipe is loved by my flock as it provides that little bit
they enjoy so. I freeze the muffins and give one or two at
a time to my flock of 10.
1 cup
 red fife flour (or
spelt flour)
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup oatmeal flakes
1/2 can premium coconut milk

Mix all dry ingredients together. Add cut bananas and
